just wanted to show people that with the next release of Brutus2D you can write console programs. This demo only uses a few of the 20 or so available console commands. The demo is self running and lasts about 2 minutes. It is a port of someone elses code. Download and unzip to its own directory. (~ 250k) brutus.pewtersoftware.com/upload/files/god.zip |

Nice. ;D
In the past I've written a few command-line programmes in Dev-C++.
In the future I'll be able to write them in Brutus2D. ;D

looks like you got your PC back up and running.
Ya, console programs can look like some low level system program that is running. I wish I could have seen the look on your college friends face.
